Expression GWAS of PGIP1 Identifies STOP1-Dependent and STOP1-Independent Regulation of PGIP1 in Aluminum Stress Signaling in Arabidopsis. FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE 2021; 12:774687. [PMID: 34975956 PMCID: PMC8719490 DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2021.774687] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/12/2021] [Accepted: 11/19/2021] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
To elucidate the unknown regulatory mechanisms involved in aluminum (Al)-induced expression of POLYGALACTURONASE-INHIBITING PROTEIN 1 (PGIP1), which is one of the downstream genes of SENSITIVE TO PROTON RHIZOTOXICITY 1 (STOP1) regulating Al-tolerance genes, we conducted a genome-wide association analysis of gene expression levels (eGWAS) of PGIP1 in the shoots under Al stress using 83 Arabidopsis thaliana accessions. The eGWAS, conducted through a mixed linear model, revealed 17 suggestive SNPs across the genome having the association with the expression level variation in PGIP1. The GWAS-detected SNPs were directly located inside transcription factors and other genes involved in stress signaling, which were expressed in response to Al. These candidate genes carried different expression level and amino acid polymorphisms. Among them, three genes encoding NAC domain-containing protein 27 (NAC027), TRX superfamily protein, and R-R-type MYB protein were associated with the suppression of PGIP1 expression in their mutants, and accordingly, the system affected Al tolerance. We also found the involvement of Al-induced endogenous nitric oxide (NO) signaling, which induces NAC027 and R-R-type MYB genes to regulate PGIP1 expression. In this study, we provide genetic evidence that STOP1-independent NO signaling pathway and STOP1-dependent regulation in phosphoinositide (PI) signaling pathway are involved in the regulation of PGIP1 expression under Al stress.

Abstract
The toxicity of aluminum (Al) in acidic soil limits global crop yield. The ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter-like gene superfamily has functions and structures related to transportation, so it responds to aluminum stress in plants. In this study, one half-size ABC transporter gene was isolated from wild soybeans (Glycine soja) and designated GsABCI1. By real-time qPCR, GsABCI1 was identified as not specifically expressed in tissues. Phenotype identification of the overexpressed transgenic lines showed increased tolerance to aluminum. Furthermore, GsABCI1 transgenic plants exhibited some resistance to aluminum treatment by ion translocation or changing root components. This work on the GsABCI1 identified the molecular function, which provided useful information for understanding the gene function of the ABC family and the development of new aluminum-tolerant soybean germplasm.

Abstract
SENSITIVE TO PROTON RHIZOTOXICITY 1 (STOP1) is a master transcription factor (TF) that regulates genes encoding proteins critical for cellular pH homeostasis. STOP1 also causes pleiotropic effects in both roots and shoots associated with various stress tolerances. STOP1-regulated genes in roots synergistically confer tolerance to coexisting stress factors in acid soil, and root-architecture remodeling for superior phosphorus acquisition. Additionally, STOP1 confers salt tolerance to roots under low-potassium conditions. By contrast, STOP1 antagonistically functions in shoots to promote hypoxia tolerance but to suppress drought tolerance. In this review, we discuss how these synergetic- and antagonistic-pleiotropic effects indicate that STOP1 is a central hub of stress regulation and that the harmonization of STOP1-regulated traits is essential for plant adaptation to various environments.

Abstract
ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter proteins are a gene super-family in plants and play vital roles in growth, development, and response to abiotic and biotic stresses. The ABC transporters have been identified in crop plants such as rice and buckwheat, but little is known about them in soybean. Soybean is an important oil crop and is one of the five major crops in the world. In this study, 255 ABC genes that putatively encode ABC transporters were identified from soybean through bioinformatics and then categorized into eight subfamilies, including 7 ABCAs, 52 ABCBs, 48 ABCCs, 5 ABCDs, 1 ABCEs, 10 ABCFs, 111 ABCGs, and 21 ABCIs. Their phylogenetic relationships, gene structure, and gene expression profiles were characterized. Segmental duplication was the main reason for the expansion of the GmABC genes. Ka/Ks analysis suggested that intense purifying selection was accompanied by the evolution of GmABC genes. The genome-wide collinearity of soybean with other species showed that GmABCs were relatively conserved and that collinear ABCs between species may have originated from the same ancestor. Gene expression analysis of GmABCs revealed the distinct expression pattern in different tissues and diverse developmental stages. The candidate genes GmABCB23, GmABCB25, GmABCB48, GmABCB52, GmABCI1, GmABCI5, and GmABCI13 were responsive to Al toxicity. This work on the GmABC gene family provides useful information for future studies on ABC transporters in soybean and potential targets for the cultivation of new germplasm resources of aluminum-tolerant soybean.
